Overview:

In response to the increasing pressure of the Soviet offensive to take Karachev and sever the rail link between Briansk and Orel, Panzer Division Grossdeutschland was shifted to the region northwest of Orel. To foil the Soviet plans, the division was split into several Kampfgruppe and sent into villages in the forest to the northeast of Karachev. July 28th saw the initial test of the newly established German positions. The Soviets, with the aid of heavy artillery support, managed to take Alisovo, but ran into stiff resistance from elements of Grossdeutschland at Kusmenkovo.
Attacker: Russian (31st Guards Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Bataillon II, Panzergrenadier Regiment Grossdeutschland, Panzer Grenadier Division Grossdeutschland)

2021-02-27(D) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German win
2021-02-27(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winLots of chess moves until Turn 3, when all hell broke loose and Dan's German let loose on my advancing Russians. Daisy chain immobilized one T-34, the 75L took down another and the Stug MALF'd it gun in intensive fire and was immobilized by the immobilized T-34. Dan and I traded bad rolls until Turn 5 when Dan got rate with nearly every weapon and destroyed my personal ELR. Dan would finished with 20 CVP and my Russians finished with 18 CVP. Good win for the Germans.
2020-09-21(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Stephane Renaudin Russian winA bit spread out german defence in the beginning. Good movement from the russian side and the failure to use the Daisy chains in a good way invited the russians into the game. The germans managed to spot good hexes for boresighting and that cost the russians one AFV and a squad. When the reinforcements come in the german defence was already hard pressed. The StuG managed to get into the woods and knock a T34 out but bogged down and was later destroyed from the behind by another tank. The russians got another AFV immobilised just before an OVR and would have had problems getting offboard with enough troops but by then the village was taken and the germans had no means of taking it back.
2020-07-09(A) Jason White vs Owen White German winMessed up with my pacing and the Russians could not get off the board fast enough. Probably should have held back my tanks to provide covering fire for the my infantry to leave. Lesson learned!
